UN Chief Warns World Faces a Climate Emergency Ahead of Summit in Turkey

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has warned that the world is approaching a critical turning point in the fight against climate change as global leaders prepare to gather in Antalya, Turkey, for the COP31 climate summit beginning November 9, 2026. In an interview with The Associated Press, Guterres described the moment as a “moment of truth” and urged governments to stop delaying action and rapidly reduce greenhouse-gas emissions. He highlighted the growing impact of deadly floods, extreme heat and increasingly destructive weather events, while warning that the Paris Agreement’s 1.5°C warming target is slipping out of reach. The summit, scheduled for November 9–20, will focus on climate finance, renewable energy, adaptation and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Guterres also called for stronger financial support for vulnerable countries and suggested taxing extraordinary profits made by fossil-fuel companies. The negotiations will test whether governments can turn repeated climate promises into measurable action.
